How to Secure Your Cryptocurrencies With These 2 Offline Tools (best I’ve found)
--
I’m pretty paranoid when it comes to my investments; I don’t want my hard-earned money ending up in the wrong hands: hackers.
That’s why I’ve invested in my investments and purchased 1 cold-storage device and 1 offline booklet that help keep my money SAFE.

When an online exchange holds your money, they hold your private keys. For me, holding more than $1,000 in these online exchanges is a little scary. I’ve read article after article talking about how “hackers broke in a stole X amount from [website].”
While most of the time people get their money back after cyber attacks like this, is it worth the frustration and hassle? For me, it’s not. I like knowing where my money is and with my Ledger Nano X, I don’t worry anymore.
With the Ledger Nano X, you can:
